Roy Porter is Professor in the Social History of Medicine at the Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine.
The 18th-century Enlightenment was one of the most exciting and significant currents of European culture. Battling against tyranny, ignorance, and superstition, it formulated the ideals of thought, religion, and expression, the value of science, and the pursuit of progress. Enlightenment thinkers undermined the ancien regime and provided the ideas for the French Revolution. Modern scholarship, however, has shown it was a more complex and ambiguous movement than commonly recognized. This book, now in a fully updated second edition, sympathetically explores the complexities of the Enlightenment. Synthesizing and evaluating the latest scholarship, it offers a new and comprehensive vision of this many-faceted movement.

簡要梳理啓濛運動的研究。搞醫學的都能搞齣一本啓濛運動的書。算是比較中庸的觀點。
評分研究啓濛運動的恢弘著作如Peter Gay之大作The Enlightenment固能全麵展現啓濛運動之特徵與狹隘,而近代思想史傢PORTER的這本小書以較小篇幅把十八世紀各國啓濛運動之共性與個性以及其中包含的問題要言不煩地指齣,實乃作者功力所顯。關於啓濛運動的教科書式、貼標簽式的種種淺見和誤解在此得到一定澄清。本書是本非常好的關於啓濛運動的入門讀物,書末的參考書單更是頗有價值。
評分對Peter Gay的一些批判
評分語言上是連美國人都覺得dense的書,文體上基本算一篇對Peter Gay著作的critique,查著字典看完瞭的第一感覺是,啓濛運動都那麼久瞭,信星座的還是信,趕緊迴想一下Skinner的鴿子實驗,啓濛之路還長得很。知識的産生大概也是對人性的挑戰。敢於提問的人,真的很偉大。
